"Brother, these things are done by our daughter, I do it better than you, besides, brother, you just came home from school, you rest!" Sister Tian Liyu has always been sensible.

"Sister, did you hear what Mom just said, Mom wants you to play hard!" Tian Limai smiled and said.

"Brother, my mother feels sorry for us, and wants me to say that when the time comes, my brother and I will be admitted to a good university, and we will earn a lot of money when we read the books, and then ask the Filipino maid to do housework for us, so that we can have fun!" My sister started to wash the dishes as she spoke, and Tian Limai found that although her sister Tian Liyu was only eleven years old, she seemed to be doing these housework!

"Sister, you said it yourself, then during this winter vacation, you have to read books every day, and my brother has to supervise!" Tian Limai saw that his sister was washing dishes and he had nothing to do, so he stood next to him and watched his sister Tian Liyu wash the dishes, he said.

"Brother, don't just talk about me, you can't forget the book, you have to read it every day, and I have to supervise!" Sister Tian Liyu accidentally splashed a few drops of dishwashing water on her forehead when she was washing dishes, she raised her right wrist and wiped her forehead with her sleeve and said.

"Yes, sister, in addition to helping our parents do some work this winter vacation, we will review our homework well, and we will supervise each other!" Tian Limai said.

At this time, after sitting at the stove door, Yang Meizhen, who was sitting on the stove for a while, coughed lightly, listened to the conversation between Tian Limai and Tian Liyu's brothers and sisters, and said: "You two brothers and sisters, you can't stay in words, you have to act, as long as your father and mother are busy winning, you will go to study!"

"Mom, I must take the key county No. 1 middle school!" Tian Limai said.

"Mom, I'm going to be admitted to the town's ethnic middle school too!" Sister Tian Limai also said.

"If both of you brothers and sisters do what you say, Mom's illness will be better!" Mother Yang Meizhen said and stood up.

"Mom, you're sitting on the fire, what's the matter for me and my sister to do!" Tian Limai saw that her mother Yang Meizhen remembered, and knew that her mother couldn't be idle, so she must be going to do it again!

"I'm going to get ten catties of soybeans to soak, and I'll push the New Year's tofu tomorrow!" Mother Yang Meizhen said as she walked from the stove door to the grain house.

"Mom, I'll help you!" Tian Limai followed her mother Yang Meizhen into the room where the grain was placed.

After her mother Yang Meizhen found a scale, she opened the lid of a wooden jar and said to Tian Limai: "Mai'er, take out ten catties of soybeans inside, weigh a scale, and then take it out and soak it in a pot.

At this time, my sister Tian Liyu had also finished washing the dishes and walked in, and seeing that Tian Limai was not familiar with it at all, she walked away and said: "Brother, let me help Mom, you learn it next to you first!"

Tian Limai smiled and said, "Sister, I'm not learning!"

Tian Limai and her sister Tian Liyu helped their mother soak the soybeans quickly.

After the soybeans were soaked, her mother Yang Meizhen said to Tian Limai: "Mai'er, tomorrow you and your sister will get up early, after breakfast, our mother will push tofu, tomorrow refers to your father's unreliable, your father will go to Jinziao tomorrow!"

"Mom, why is Dad going to Jinziao to do it?" Tian Limai vaguely knew in his heart that his father Tian Hezhuang must have gone to the Danduo family when he went to Jinziao, but he still asked his mother Yang Meizhen like this.

"Mai'er, don't you know your father's temperament? He'll definitely go to Shan Jia to make it clear!" Mother Yang Meizhen said.

Tian Limai listened to his mother's words, and didn't say anything anymore, he had already made up his mind in his heart: the Shan family would definitely mention that Xia Lizhou became a "good student of righteousness and courage" because of protecting Shan Duoyi, so he has a lot of truth to say!

As the night wore on, my mother went to sleep, and my sister went to her room. Tian Limai walked into his room, turned on the light, and was about to read a book for a while before sleeping, but when he took the book, he couldn't concentrate at all, and he was distracted when he looked at it!

Tian Limai's room, before he went home, his mother and sister had already cleaned it, but because no one had slept in the room for nearly half a year, there was still a faint strange smell coming from the room!

Tomorrow my father Tian Hezhuang will go to Jinziao, if Shan Duoyi's family does not mention Xia Lizhou to his father, then there will be trouble, after all, Shan Duoyi released people to the household was temporarily thought up by himself, and in Tian Limai's heart, Shan Duoyi's eyes that communicated with Xia Lizhou were too memorable to Tian Limai, it can be said that Shan Duoyi has not used that kind of eyes to communicate with himself! Besides, I already have a new opinion of Luo Sisi's classmates in the class, especially Luo Sisi threw a small paper ball to himself, alas, I also blame myself for being too emotional, if I took a look at the content of the small paper ball that Luo Sisi threw to himself, I would have the bottom of my heart today!

No matter whether his father Tian Hezhuang goes to Jinziao or not, and no matter what the result is after his father Tian Hezhuang goes, he will not agree to "talk about a daughter-in-law" now!

Tian Limai saw that he was not in the mood to read, so he simply stopped reading and lay down on the bed and thought nonsense!

Thinking about it, he got tired, and soon he fell asleep!

The next morning, Tian Limai was woken up by his sister Tian Liyu: "Brother, get up quickly, Mom let us push tofu!"

Maybe in this era, people in many places don't need to prepare their own New Year's goods for the New Year, and they don't need to "push three dozen or dozen", that is, push tofu, push mung bean skin, push glutinous rice balls, beat glutinous rice syrup, and beat glutinous rice syrup, glutinous rice syrup is used to fry sparse baba, because they are close to the market town, but the people in this place can't do it, because it is too far away from the market town, and if you go to the market town to buy it, it is really "tofu plate has become the price of meat"!

Of course, for Tian Limai's family, it is even more impossible to go to the street to buy it, because Tian Limai and her sister Tian Liyu's living expenses for studying are all sold by the family, and they will take the money out to buy New Year's goods in order to save trouble!?

After Tian Limai got up to wash his face and brush his teeth, he and his sister Tian Liyu went to push tofu, and his mother Yang Meizhen was making breakfast.

Tian Liyu did those jobs very quickly, the stone mill that pushed the tofu was installed on the eaves on the left side of the door of the hall, after Tian Limai carried a bucket of water, Tian Liyu first washed the stone mill with a bamboo shabu, and then began to add a small spoonful of soybeans soaked last night to the stone mill!

In that place, people push and grind with a grinding hook, if the strength is small, then two people to carry out, two people stand side by side, the grinding hook is pulled and pushed, the stone mill will rotate!

Tian Limai can also push it alone, but his father Tian Hezhuang didn't seem to be ready to do anything else before breakfast, so he helped Tian Limai push and grind!

While grinding, his father Tian Hezhuang asked again: "Mai'er, last night you said that the single girl was released, Dad still doesn't believe it, I only went a few days ago, I haven't heard of it, is it possible that someone has come to the door to propose marriage in the past day or two!?" ”

Tian Limai couldn't help but feel a little unhappy when he saw that his father Tian Hezhuang mentioned the matter of "talking about a daughter-in-law" for him again, but in front of his father Tian Hezhuang, Tian Limai absolutely couldn't show that kind of unhappiness, because he knew that everything his father did was for his sake, especially his father dragging a disabled lame leg, which paid more than other fathers!

"Dad, I heard my mother say, you are going to Jinziao today, Dad, you won't go, the New Year is coming up in a few days, our family's New Year's goods haven't been done yet, and even the New Year's pig hasn't been killed, tell me that my daughter-in-law's affairs are not busy for the time being, okay?" When I graduate from junior high school, I will have time in the summer vacation!" Tian Limai persuaded.

"Mai'er, it's not that Dad is in a hurry, you are actually still young, I think so, you are still studying, people have a sense of respect for people who read, when looking for a daughter-in-law, I heard that you are still studying, others have a hope in their hearts, maybe they agree, a family like ours, two of the four people are unhappy, if you graduate from school, junior high school is not admitted to high school, high school is not admitted to college, whose girl will marry into our family? So, Mai'er, you have to understand Dad's good heart!" Father Tian Hezhuang said.

Listening to his father's words, Tian Limai really didn't have anything to say in his heart, his father Tian Hezhuang was too worried about himself!

"Dad, in fact, there is one more thing like this," Tian Limai decided to tell the truth to his father Tian Hezhuang, and his father Tian Hezhuang was lame If he went to Jinziao and found that it was not what Tian Limai said, he didn't know what to be angry about. "Shan Duoyi helped in the 'Ding Shihui' restaurant in Huolongping Town, because I was a classmate in elementary school, and it was a village, so I often went to visit her, once I also took Xia Lizhou with me, but I didn't expect the two of them to meet, but a little 'that' meaning, Dad, Xia Lizhou, you also know, is my best classmate now, if I go to say that Shan Duoyi is a daughter-in-law, what should Xia Lizhou think of me?" Tian Limai said.

"Oh, Mai'er, that's right!" After hearing this, his father Tian Hezhuang whispered.

Tian Limai was silent after seeing his father Tian Hezhuang speak softly, and then he said that Xia Lizhou won the title of "Huolongping Town Righteousness and Courage as a Good Student" after fighting with the three boys for Shan Duoyi, and was rewarded by the town government and school, as well as all kinds of news media rushed to publicize and report.

After that, Tian Limai persuaded: "Dad, because there was a grandfather, grandma, uncle, and second uncle who were here last night, I couldn't say it all, so I had to say it like that, and since Shan Duoyi and my classmate Xia Lizhou have that meaning, we went to ask the matchmaker to propose marriage, then Shan Duoyi may not agree, one disagrees, one is to save our face, and the other is that Xia Lizhou will think that my classmate is too unsympathetic and dig his wall foot after he knows!" ”
